India’s ICC Title Drought An Issue Of Mindset, Not Skill, Says Matthew Hayden

The great Matthew Hayden reckons India’s title drought in ICC events in the past decade has to come down to the players’ mindset as skill was never an issue and has advised them to “forget about the outcome” going into the World Test Championship final against Australia.

India’s last ICC title came under the leadership of M S Dhoni back in 2013 and since then the team has fallen short in high pressure knock-out games including the 2017 Champions Trophy final against Pakistan, the 2019 ODI World Cup semifinal versus New Zealand and more recently the T20 World Cup semifinal against England last year.
